Lemon Herb Rice Pilaf with Grilled Chicken
Tender grilled chicken breast served over a fragrant lemon-herb rice pilaf with sweet peas and a bright, zesty citrus finish.
INGREDIENTS
5.25 oz chicken breast
0.5 cup cooked basmati rice
1 tsp extra virgin olive oil
0.25 cup yellow onion
1 clove garlic
0.25 cup frozen peas
1 tbsp fresh parsley
1 tsp lemon zest
1 tbsp lemon juice
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
0.25 tsp dried oregano
PREPARATION
Season the chicken breast evenly with sea salt, black pepper, and dried oregano.
Heat the extra virgin olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Place the chicken in the skillet and cook for 6 to 7 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through.
Transfer the chicken to a cutting board and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
In the same skillet, add the diced yellow onion and minced garlic, sautéing for 3 minutes until softened.
Add the cooked basmati rice and frozen peas to the skillet, stirring to combine with the aromatics.
Stir in the lemon zest and lemon juice, heating for 2 minutes until the rice is fluffy and well-incorporated.
Divide the rice pilaf into bowls, top with sliced chicken, and garnish with fresh parsley.
